Don't be discouraged if you "kill it" during a test drive ....... it ain't a 1941 Ford, that you could pop the clutch at idle and have it take off ......

I was too nervous to test drive it in manual and went with the automatic. Although the paddle shifters make a cool addition to an automatic and I'd be happy to have it in my car, I can't see how that even remotely compares to manuals. Also, off topic question, how do you thank posts in the forums?
